There is an ongoing debate regarding the status of certain groups of Ethiopian "Jews" who wish to come to Israel, however this is based on disagreements as to their status and whether they are entitled to immigrate. This is not due to any racist reasons.

Well, im no expert on this and it genuinely is very complicated. Basically, the issue surrounds a sub group of Ethiopians, who consider themselves Jewish and do have many Jewish cultural and religious practices, despite their isolation for a great many years. However, they belong to a group that was forceably converted to Christianity (in the 1400s I believe) and still follow many Christian practices. There is some debate in Israel as to whether this group are Jewish.

In addittion, there is great debate amongst the Ethiopian Jewish community in Israel, many of whom actively lobby the government to not allow them to immigrate, for the same reasons. Combined with the fact that a (small, i believe) number have been found to be active Christian proselytisers in Israel, this is a huge issue amongst the elders and members of the Ethiopian community. The Ethiopian community is a relatively small, poor and close nit group who strongly maintain their cultural heritage - the fear of Christian Ethiopians arriving to Israel and influencing their youth is a serious point of contention for them.

I believe that a small number of Ethiopians from this group are allowed to immigrate each month, however the issue is currently hotly debated in Israel amongst the general population as well as Ethiopian immigrant communities.

As I said, it is a very complicated matter and I really only know the basics.

Jews >>>>>>>>>>>&gt ; Gentiles.

"Who has won, Rome or Judea? But there can be no doubt: consider to whom one bows down in Rome itself today, as if they were the epitome of all the highest values---and not only in Rome but over almost half the earth, everywhere that has become tame or desires to be tame: three Jews, as is known, and one Jewess (Jesus of Nazareth, the fisherman Peter, the rug weaver Paul, and the mother of the aforementioned Jesus, named Mary). This is very remarkable: Rome has been defeated beyond all doubt." (Nietzsche, Genealogy of Morals, trans. Walter Kaufmann)

Jews are directly or indirectly responsible for basically every important scientific and artistic advance in history. All of civilization is a footnote to the Semitic genius.

Being a non-Jew, I shamefacedly and very humbly bow down before the Semitic genius.

We are simply not worthy.
